Awakening from a Dream?! / Expressing Inner Sentiments??

After doing all this, Ling Mengxue was completely unaware of anything, yawned, and went upstairs, leaving the two of them still dumbfounded.

"Sister Yi Ren, I feel like that sister is so familiar and kind to me, just like... just like Brother Duskfall!"

Xia Keke stared in the direction of the corridor, blinked, and then leisurely looked at Ye Yiren.

Ye Yiren paused for a moment, then suddenly twitched her lips and asked in a resentful tone, "Do you think... is it possible that the older sister is your Duskfall brother?"

"Huh??" Xia Keke was stunned, completely surprised, and started to complain in her mind.

This... this can't be right, can it??

My brother is a boy, how could he possibly turn into a girl...? Wait...?

It seems like it's not impossible!

"Come on, let's go up and take a look. We'll probably find out soon enough." Ye Yiren's lips curled up slightly as she smiled and took Xia Keke's hand, then lowered her eyes slightly.

Even without those words, she was already pretty sure of the situation.

Judging from Ling Mengxue's ambiguous words and her ability to unleash "art" upon contact with alcohol and let her mind go completely, she really couldn't find anyone else in the world but Ling Feng!

For some reason, Ye Yiren became angrier the more she thought about it, her hands unconsciously clenching, secretly furious and feeling incredibly stifled.

Why didn't you tell me about something so important sooner? I wouldn't laugh at you! What's so shameful about it? I could have fought alongside you! Why did you have to shoulder everything alone?

These words perfectly capture Ye Yiren's current state of mind—so damn true!

With a slight tightening of her slender, well-defined fingers, Xia Keke felt her entire hand being held so tightly, her delicate skin turning red...

Xia Keke blushed and lowered her head, letting Ye Yiren pull her along.

Then, she thought of the secret that her brother Duskfall was hiding, and she was equally excited!

On the other side.

Ling Mengxue returned to her room, immediately took off her shoes and socks, threw her coat and jacket on the hanger, and then rolled onto the bed like a salted fish, not wanting to move at all.

When you get home, the most tiring moment of the day, all you want to do is take a shower as soon as possible, lie in bed and rest, and listlessly scroll through your phone. This must be the daily reality for modern people, right?

Is it wrong to want to be a lazy bum?

That's right!

Being a couch potato can even be considered a dream, but you still have to strive to keep up with the times. You need at least the means to be a couch potato; life's crises are too much to handle.

But now... things like life crises seem to have nothing to do with her anymore??

I turned off the lights, closed my eyes, and went to sleep, but then there was another knock on the door.

Why not ring the doorbell instead of knocking?

"Ling Feng! Are you inside??"

Outside the door, Ye Yiren saw that the room was dimly lit. She knocked on the door and rang the doorbell, still unwilling to give up.

She was determined to uncover the secret herself!

Or should we force our way in?

Xia Keke followed behind her. Suddenly, the girl's eyes lit up. As if she had thought of something, she quietly opened the door to the room next to hers and went in step by step.

A few minutes later, a shout of "There's a thief!" came from inside the house, leaving Ye Yiren completely stunned.

What's going on here?

Turning around again, I realized that the adorable master had disappeared without a trace!

Bang--!!

With a click of a lock, the doorknob slowly turned and opened.

Ling Mengxue peeked out, her pretty face still flushed slightly. Her elegant and mysterious silver hair fell naturally, like the Milky Way and starry sky beyond the heavens, captivating the eye. She was elegant and beautiful, yet her hair appeared somewhat disheveled.

At this moment, her eyebrows furrowed, and her seemingly calm, icy blue eyes were actually turbulent. Before the newcomer could speak, she threw the little girl she was holding away.

And this little girl is none other than Xia Keke, who just sneaked out to climb through the window. Now that she's been left on the ground like this, her butt really hurts!

"You guys... get some rest. Let's talk about it tomorrow. I'm worried that if this continues, I might do something unexpected."

Ling Mengxue said something indifferently, then closed the door again and returned to her room.

In fact, in her mind, she didn't even know what she had done wrong. She only vaguely remembered drinking an alcoholic beverage not long ago, which was very bad for her because she was allergic to alcohol.

Her subconscious told her that this thing might cause bad things to happen around her, so she had no choice but to leave it at that for now.

As for what negative consequences it might cause, she couldn't remember; the point was simply to speak as little as possible!

But what she didn't know was that the most serious consequences were already on the horizon...

Staring at the door in front of her, Ye Yiren's expression froze, her hand frozen in mid-air, unsure whether to lower it or knock...

What's going on here?

Xia Keke stood up nonchalantly, patted her skirt, and smiled at her, "Sister Yi Ren, there's no mistake, this is Brother Duskfall's room, and that sister must be Brother himself!"

Ling Mengxue: Listen to me, thank you!

Chapter 169 Awakening from a Dream?!

The air became inexplicably quiet.

Ye Yiren stood there, seemingly lost in thought. After a moment, she smiled and said, "Master, why don't you go back and rest? We'll wait and see what she has to say when she's sober tomorrow!"

"Brother Duskfall has become Sister Duskfall, I can't laugh anymore~" Xia Keke chuckled and pursed her lips, speaking in a very professional manner.

Ye Yiren couldn't help but twitch her lips, and patted her head. "Don't let your brother Duskfall lead you astray, you should learn from the good things, you have no idea how bad she was in the past, she even stole all the bamboo shoots on the mountain!"

Wow! I never knew my brother was this amazing before!

Ye Yiren: o?? o?

Xia Keke excitedly rubbed her face; her skin was so smooth and fair that Ye Yiren was completely stunned.

That's a foul; you can't blindly worship others!

Afterwards, Ye Yiren returned to the front desk and booked a room for herself, a standard room on the lowest floor.

She simply couldn't bring herself to sleep with Xia Keke. Xia Keke might not mind, but she was determined to become the legendary "Big Sister"—how could she possibly freeload off her room?

Oh, and there's one more thing she couldn't understand: this is supposed to be a high-end guesthouse, so how did Ling Mengxue and her companion manage to afford a room on the upper floor?

Are they all that rich? ヽ(￣д￣;)ノ

Nothing more was said that night.

Time flows ceaselessly like the tide; it merely brushes past us quietly, never to be seen again.

While everyone was still immersed in their dreams, the next morning arrived in the blink of an eye.

Just like the past few days, the atmosphere outside the streets was noisy and lively this morning, but there was more joy and excitement than anything else. The reason was that the real Murder Demon had been caught, and the fact that there were actually two Murder Demon shocked many people.

Although there were many funny and convoluted moments, overall it was basically fine.

Some players, who were still enjoying the good treatment given to 'boys' in this world, suddenly became miserable and started crying and cursing when they heard that the mission was about to end.

I was hoping girls would buy me gifts and bags, and you actually want to leave?!

Do you even know what welfare is?

Of course, this is only the opinion of some boys. Many people just feel that there is still more to explore, and they are filled with dreams and wonder about everything they have encountered in this world.

Meanwhile, in a room on the second floor of the hotel, Ling Mengxue lay on the bed in a rather unladylike sleeping posture, squinting her eyes as she gradually came to reality.

"Ugh, so tired~~ It feels like I had such a long dream, doing so many silly things, playing hide-and-seek with the kids in the park, performing magic for them, and even revealing my identity to Yi Ren. It all seems so stupid... like a complete idiot..."

Ling Mengxue stared at the pristine white ceiling above her head, talking to herself.

Sunlight streamed through the curtains, casting a golden glow on the floor, but the room still felt somewhat dim.

She subconsciously reached out her hand, spread her five fingers, and examined them carefully for a while.

The slender, delicate hands before her seemed to glow with moisture; their skin was snow-white and smooth. She herself wanted to take a bite; they probably tasted quite good...

Etc!

Something seems off?!

After carefully recalling the details of her dream, Ling Mengxue was startled and sat up abruptly in bed, her slender hands gripping the quilt tightly, her bright eyes clearly showing some tension.

The poor child was terrified, his face turned pale!

"Holy crap! Has it really been exposed?!"

Ling Mengxue was panting heavily, the suffocating feeling still lingering on her neck, and her body was covered in cold sweat, as if she had just woken up from a nightmare, but in fact, she was pretty much there.

Not a nightmare, but worse than a nightmare!

Ding-dong!!

The doorbell rang, and the sudden sound that echoed in the room startled Ling Mengxue quite a bit.

No way?

Could it be that Yi Ren others have come knocking on our door?

Knowing this girl's personality, if I kept such a big thing from her, she'd definitely make a huge scene, asking why I went through all that trouble to hide it from her, and whether I was even a brother to her.

Isn't that outrageous?

Ye Yiren is absolutely capable of doing it!

Although my actions weren't exactly good, it would be a miracle if anyone were to voluntarily reveal that they were a girl, right?

Aren't you afraid of getting killed?

Fortunately, I had been worrying too much. Soon, a slightly familiar voice came from outside the door. "Is Duskfall here? I'm the one who delivered your takeout before."

"Bai Tangyin?"

Ling Mengxue was momentarily dazed as a memory flooded her mind, and she instantly regained her senses.

That eccentric delivery girl who previously battled a 'serial killer' for three hundred rounds~

However, thinking about this, Ling Mengxue couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Wasn't everything resolved? With the evidence they collected, Bai Tangyin should have been cleared of wrongdoing. Logically, there shouldn't be any problems anymore. Why are they suddenly coming after her again?

Ling Mengxue got up and put on her slippers, only to find that they had become "bigger." Realizing this, she quickly used the 'Illusory Realm' to disguise herself again.

So what if it's exposed? We still need to think about how to explain it later; at least we can't let ourselves be exposed in front of outsiders right now.

I walked over and opened the door. As expected, when I looked up, that familiar face came into view.

Bai Tangyin had changed back into her beige delivery uniform. A warm smile graced her face as she solemnly handed over a large bag, saying, "Little brother Duskfall, thank you so much this time. Without your timely help, I would almost be dead. I never imagined... that a dignified sheriff would do something so outrageous. I reckon 'Happy Town' won't be peaceful for a while. It's best to be careful. Please accept this breakfast; don't refuse it. It's the best old shop in town that I found!"

Ling Mengxue stared at her blankly, then smiled and accepted the gift without refusing, saying, "Stay and have a meal with us."

Bai Tangyin was taken aback, a little embarrassed, clearly not having accepted the handsome man's invitation. After a moment, she suddenly laughed out loud, "Haha, little brother, you guys take your time eating. I still have a delivery to make, and my bike is parked downstairs; I'm worried the battery will get stolen!"

"Alright, be careful on the road." Ling Mengxue smiled and didn't try to stop her any further.

She remembered her own world; it seemed there was a notorious battery thief named Zhou who specialized in stealing batteries...

In the news report, he said things like, "Everyone in prison is talented, and they all speak so nicely. I love being there." "Working is out of the question. I'll never work in my life." "When I make my move, I can basically be sure you'll be walking home."

That's... outrageous??

Just then, Ye Yiren came upstairs and saw this scene. She couldn't help but smile and say, "Oh? Having dinner together? Come on~"

[Img=700,996] Chapter 170: Expressing Personal Reflections??

"Yi Ren??"

Upon seeing the newcomer, Ling Mengxue instinctively took a step back, her expression somewhat complicated.

It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early; what's destined to happen can't be avoided!
